My car met with small accident on 22/4/2017. While checking the car number plate only damaged. Then i have started the car & moved around 500 meters after that car stopped, i tried to start the car but it is failed start & engine oil red light alarm came. After that i have called renault road side assistance & they came & towed my vehicle all the way from manjur to coimbatore.

On 24/04/2017 i have visited service centre anamalais-coimbatore. Service person told me that radiator got damaged we will replace like that he told. After one day he called me & said after replacing radiator there is no improvement & he need to take compression test & all. Then next day he told shocking news to me that engine got seized.

I was very shocked at that time to here that news. Then their service team told me to replace the complete engine assembly which is cost around rs 80, 000. Simply they are saying this is not come under warranty.

This is purely quality issue of the renault kwid. Engine got seized with in 4 months (Driven around 4000 kms). Very very small accident.

Any how i paid advance rs 20000 for engine replacement.

I strongly recommend you all don't go for renault kwid any more,

After hit i have not driven more than 500 meter, but engine got seized. How???

Almost 1 month got over waiting for positive reply from renault

My car no is tn 38 ch 1566
